To achieve the optimal public recreational experience at Everglades Holiday Park (EHP)Broward County is collecting information related to Everglades Holiday Park to develop a vision of the optimal opportunities for public recreation for the area. The vision must not only reflect the recreational needs of residents and visitors, but also recognize environmental and regulatory constraints, our history and heritage, and historical educational opportunities in a sustainable manner.

A farmer’s legacy of public recreation to Broward County Everglades Holiday Park is strategically located on land that was owned by a Broward County farmer who generously contributed the site to Broward County for public recreational use. The site was identified as a proposed recreational site by the agency that ultimately became the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). Broward County leased the land to the agency that is now known as the Florida Fish and Game Conservation Commission, which in turn sublease it to a series of concessionaires. The site’s four boat ramps provide boaters access to a significant portion of the Everglades. EHP is Broward County’s only direct access to the Florida Everglades. Currently an educational group called Science Eye runs an environmental science education program for school children and others. The SFWMD’s Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Program (CERP) has preliminary plans for a parking area, a bridge over the C-11 canal, restrooms, and an informational kiosk immediately next to the site. Broward County’s Greenways and Blueways master plan proposes a major trailhead at the site that would ultimately give multipurpose trail access throughout Broward County.

Local Government and Recreation Departments: While all the municipalities of Broward County have potential interest in the facilities, the municipalities of Southwest Ranches, Weston, Pembroke Pines, and the Town of Davie may be especially interested due to their close proximity to Everglades Holiday Park. All are located within miles of EHP. In addition to general concerns, their recreation staff may have specific interest in the possible facilities and the ability to accommodate a wide range of recreational programs.

Educators: Public and private schools, local colleges, universities (BCC, FAU, FIU, Nova, McFatter Technical Center, etc.), and organizations such as Science Eye may be interested in the potential environmental, historical, educational, interpretive, and recreational opportunities.

Green Builders: The U.S. Green Builders Council, the Florida Chapter together with its coalition of students and professionals, the Emerging Green Builders, may help proposed recreational facilities highlight green building principles. Many of the principles of green building were practiced by the native Americans and early pioneer settlers.

Environmentalists: Those who are concerned with the preservation of natural resources and want to educate the public on the ecological, aesthetic, and spiritual values of the natural environment may be interested in using Everglades Holiday Park. These people are often associated with organizations such as the Audubon Society, Sierra Club, Friends of the Everglades, the Native Plant Society, etc.

History and Heritage: Our community’s roots give a critical sense of place that reflects our unique place in the world and the contributions of our ancestors. Some of the groups that can help find and interpret our roots are: the Miccosukee Tribe of Florida, the Seminole Tribe of Florida, the African-American Research Library and Cultural Center, Dillard High School, the State Office of Historic Preservation, and the Broward Historical Commission.

The first time fishing in Florida, in January 2014 I went out with my husband, and my Dad we went to the Glades with Captain Brett. We had such a blast! We caught a lot of nice fish, and we were hooked from day one on Brett! He has such a great personality, he is easy going and fun to be around. My husband and I booked another trip in December 2014 with Captain Brett for 3 full days on Lake Okeechobee, and yet again Brett put us right on the fish, and we caught some beauties! Our biggest catches were a 5.13 and 6.4! We love going out with Brett, we actually keep in touch with him even when we are not in Florida. When we are on his boat we are fishing with a friend and like I said an awesome Captain! We already have another trip planned for this summer!! Book with Captain Brett and you will not be disappointed!
